TESTIMONIALS

You haven't seen nothing yet, that is until you get a
chance to take a crack at upland bird hunting at the
new, yes that's right, the NEW Millstream Hunting
Preserve located heart of Lebanon, CT
farmlands. Millstream Hunting Preserve LLC, formerly
located in Columbia has moved to a new and better
location that will fit the hunting ability of just about
every upland bird hunter in the northeast. But it is the
terrain you will be hunting in that will absolutely blow
you away.

Hundreds of acres of cornfields and hayfields loaded
with natural cover and bordered by hedgerows that can
only make your upland game hunt even better. Natural
covers that will attract and hold birds border the fields
and believe me, the fields are things of beauty.

I had a chance to view the new Millstream location
at 55 York Road with owner Don Favry recently and
believe me when I tell you it was mind-boggling. This
new location is an upland bird hunter's dream come
true.

Here in Connecticut, upland hunters are generally
relegated to whatever is available when it comes to
land for hunting upland birds like pheasants, Chukar
partridge, Hungarian partridge and even the occasional
Bobwhite quail. Whenever I happen to catch a video on
pheasant hunting on the tube, the hunters are almost
always in nice open fields covered with patches of corn
or hay that the birds come flying out of and the shots are unobstructed by vegetation.

Well Connecticut hunters can have this opportunity as
well, simply by going to Millstream Hunting Preserve
and they will now be able to offer you various choices
on the length or type of hunt you want to purchase. At
the old Millstream you had two choices of what type of
route you wanted to take to do your hunt, both of them
in some pretty rugged cover.

At the New Millstream think of hunting the upland birds
of your choice over a hunting route of your choice. It
will definitely be an upland bird hunt that will not end
up in the same old bird field time after time. I for one
am looking forward to the upcoming season at the
Millstream Hunting Preserve's new location. They will
now be presenting upland bird hunting the way it
should be.

And for those of you who have become used to the
excellent goose, turkey, deer, rabbit and other types of
hunting at Millstream, fear not, they still offer the best
of all types of hunting for the serious hunter and it is an
excellent spot to bring the kids, women and
handicapped hunters and introduce them to the
wonders of hunting at Millstream Hunting Preserve.

"For the past 6 years, Millstream Preserve has provided
an opportunity for me to spend exceptional time in the
field with my family and friends. Don and his team work
tirelessly to develop and maintain the natural habitat
that hunters appreciate. With limited open areas hunt in
Connecticut, few wild birds and reduced state stocking
of pheasants, Millstream provides a great alternative for
anyone wanting to spend some time with a good dog
and a shotgun. Don's staff of guides are knowledgeable
and committed to provide a quality hunting experience
for every guest. Give Don a call and schedule a hunt."

"I've been hunting Millstream since 1997 when a
coworker introduced me to Don. My son joined me at
15 in 1999 and we've hunted together every year since.
The majority of our hunting has been upland bird but
we've recently added turkey and will be adding goose
and duck. Millstream is a great place to hunt, with
terrain from open fields to tight woods, providing for a
great challenging day. The guides and dogs are
exceptional leaving no excuses for missing birds except
the sun in your eyes, the wind or that dang tree
jumping in the way. Don and his crew get to know you
as a hunter and as a person. In my case they know that
I'm not a big fan of venison so they make sure that
there is at least one venison dish on the menu for all of
my hunting meals! Both my son and I would
recommend Millstream to anyone looking for a great
hunting experience tailored to your specific needs.
Enjoy!"

For nearly a decade I've booked upland, waterfowl, and
turkey hunts at Millstream. Friends, family, and
business associates have joined me over the years for
what I consider to be a premiere hunting experience--
the best in the Northeast.
Millstream is a truly beautiful property that has been
meticulously maintained and improved over the years.
It's been my good fortune to see this property
developed into a top quality preserve. Don Favry and
his staff are knowledgeable outdoors-men and guides.
They know wildlife, habitat management, gun-dogs,
and how to guide top-notch hunts. They are truly a joy
to be with.
Great people, great pointer gun-dogs, beautiful land,
action packed hunts. It's simply the best!

"We've been going to Millstream Preserve since it
opened; it is a well-run operation on a beautiful piece
of scenic Connecticut countryside. We've done upland bird hunting from Alaska to Uruguay to Zimbabwe, but
for a classic New England upland hunt, Millstream is the
place. All three of my sons got their introduction to
hunting there, and being only 30 minutes from
Hartford, it is very convenient to bring Hartford-area
clients there for a quick 2 or 3 hour executive hunt. The
best dogs and the best guides that I have encountered
in a preserve setting are to be found at Millstream.
Don's runs a great operation, and I recommend it
highly."
